What is a Side View Mirror
A side view mirror, also referred to as a door mirror, wing mirror, or fender mirror, is the outside mirror located on each side of a vehicle, which is an important safety feature because, when angled correctly, it allows the driver to see what is in the blind spot of their peripheral vision.
On most vehicles today, side view mirrors are mounted to the front driver and passenger side doors, but on a few models they are mounted to the fenders. Your vehicle’s side-view mirror plays a major role in the appearance and safety of your car or truck.
Side View Mirror Types
There are 2 basic types of side-view mirrors: power mirrors and manual mirrors, but many other options exist under each classification. These include but are not limited to: direct bolt-on manual mirrors, remote operated manual mirrors, folding mirrors, heated mirrors, turn signal mirrors, power mirrors with memory, and more. We work on all types!
Issues That May Require Replacement
There are many reasons why your vehicle’s exterior mirrors would need to be replaced including:
- damage to the mirror housing
- cracked or scratched mirror glass
- broken heating elements
- electronic mirror adjustment not working
- other failure of any mirror functions like power auto folding or defrost.
Some causes of outer mirror damage include hail, road debris, hitting your garage, minor accidents and close calls with things like mailboxes. Mirror features like motors for adjustment, glass heating elements, and lighting can wear out from use and exposure to the elements over time.
Sometimes these problems can originate from the switch inside your vehicle, or even in the wiring that runs from the switch to the mirror. It is important to bring your vehicle into Elite Auto Glass so our qualified auto glass installation professionals can properly diagnose your vehicle’s problem. We can make sure the correct side mirror parts are ordered and properly installed, saving you time and money.
